No Words Spoken

October 29, 2013 By Karen Main 22 Comments

No Words

She sat quietly in the audience, a tear gently spilled into her lap, maternal pride, a friend reached over, patted her leg
– I know….. no words spoken

He arrived late, she stirred in her sleep, his arm coiled around her, she smiled to herself
– I am home…..no words spoken

The kids raced through the kitchen, she continued to chop and stir,  a hand came to rest on her shoulder
– I am here to help …..no words spoken

Her arm absently drifted across the sofa, stroking the silky grey fur, a purr, a glance
–  This is the life……no words spoken

He lovingly tucked Teddy back under the covers, a sleepy arm reached up, wrapped around his neck
– Love you Dad…….no words spoken

A wet nose nudged at his leg, he looked down, patted his head
– Love ya mate…..
no words spoken

People were everywhere, rushing to their seats, it was about to start, she glanced around, saw him, she smiled, he smiled back
– Maybe later?…….no words spoken

The phone beeped, a new message, a photo, all smiles from the other side of the world
– Having the best time…….no words spoken

He stood beside her, she rested her head on his shoulder
– Thanks for being here……no words spoken

They held each other, squeezed tight
– I am all yours…..no words spoken

Tender honest moments of connection

Tender honest moments of bliss

No words needed, no words spoken

This Day 29 in my 31 Day series of Captured Bliss.

        Really goosebumps, I’ve copied out some of your lines here and stuck it inside my cupboard so that when I get dressed in the morning I can remember how special no words can be…
